You know it is too bad that we can't have the Ground War of WWIIonline and the Air War of Aces High. That would make a very kick bellybutton game. Every time I am in WWII and in a Spit I can simply forget about attacking ground units. Hope they iron that out. But I totally agree the Ground War is awesome.  :) Put nothing holds a candle to AH for cat fighting.

It is basically the biggest piece of toejam I have ever had the misfortune to log into. Barely works offline and on, it's just horrible....fps at .02 and less if theres other objects around, can take minutes to jump from driver to gunner slot...thats right, MINUTES, and then more time to magnify.  Constant screen freezes and lag like you've never seen. Those people should be put in jail for fraud.  The guy at EBX told me when I bought it that there was no refunds.  Apparently their retail partners, ebx and the electronics boutique knew it was garbage before release.  I'm probably gonna file a complaint with my credit card company to get my money back.  Man, those guys didnt even make a good attempt.  All that toejam about 1000 guys online at once.  They got 6 servers up and they cant handle 100 each much less 1000.  Christ what a ripoff.

Hate to say it.....
But we told ya so..
Na Na Na Na!!

LOL, Only joking.
Crash. Feel sorry for yall bro. I don't think you can get it over here in the UK yet. The problem with them is. Unline HT and Pyro they are under a very strict time frame and where trying to make something huge!! HTC is a company that was designed to be small. But with being small they get a lot of revinue and are not under a whole lot of presure which gives them the ability to do the patches and updates very well. Think about it. How many other games can give you patches for updates 12 hours after the update is released.

In my opinion.... Bye Bye WW2OL.... I will start carving out the tombstone.

The framerate is far too slow now for WWIIOL to be an acceptable game.

Jesus Crash, what the hell kind of machine are you running... an Atari?

I've got a Duron 650 o/c 800, 512 meg ram and a GF2 MX video card and I'm, getting 25fps + in vehicles and 10-48 fps in aircraft!

I sometimes wonder how many guys buy a computer, never bother to update video/BIOS/cache settings .. then complain when they can't get performance like their neighbour  ;)

How about letting us know your system specs?

bet he has about 128mb ram and that wont do, for the time beeing.
can see u have 512 and that is what helps u out jekyll.
heard about people with256 and still complaining about the swap drive usage, could be a bug but i might think that ww2online need that for all info needed for gaming that game .

Lemme guess... after all yer optimizing, the 48 fps is flying to the fight, and the 10 fps is *during* the fight?

After asking myself for the last 4 days in a row "why am I I still bothering to try this"?
Last night I'd had enough, and WWIIOL is gone off my HD.

Flying is impossible, I've lost host connect every time I played but 2. (Just a question of how long before it happens not if it's going to.)
Load & spawn times are totally unacceptable.
Frame rates are way to low, and are tied as much to server load as what machine you have.
